Parallels?

[Linkjul]

Welcome to the FG forums.

Can you provide some more information about what isn't working?

Hello, thanks for the reply!

While using Parallels, I installed the beta from the kickstarter link, and after I load the updater, I enter my ultimate key and my login informations. It says connection successful.

After I return to the first updater screen, I press update, and it says error, retrying in 10 seconds. Forever.

I tried changing my password, without ay success.

I tried the bridge thing in Parallels, but I'm not sure if there are any other steps I should do, as I can't connect to my wifi router, it says already connected by Ethernet.

Thanks a lot in advance!

Make sure that the bridged network is set to the correct device. According to Parallels:

Bridged: Ethernet corresponds to your Mac Ethernet adapter
Bridged: Wi-Fi corresponds to your Mac Wi-Fi adapter. (may work unstable depending on router settings)
Bridged: Default Adapter corresponds to whichever network adapter is chosen as the default (the first in the list System Preferences > Network) on the Mac

Thanks for the answers

I tried putting it to Bridged, using Wifi and Default Adapter, but it still says the same unknown error and retrying in 10 seconds.

Are there any other steps after it is set to bridged mode to take in windows?

Thanks

Try to get it to work in FGC first?

[Linkjul]

I tried with FGC, I have no key, but I was able to download the update.

Trying again FGU, same Unknown error and retrying in 10 seconds.

Next step, I'll try reinstalling a windows VM in Parrallels, as I really don't know what else to do.

Running the updater generally simply needs internet access. It uses the same protocol as browsing websites, to my knowledge. Can you browse websites from within your VM? If the updater gets stuck like that, but web access is working, it could be some security software (anti-virus or firewall) or it might be a file/folder permissions issue. Do you get the same result if you manually run the Fantasy Grounds Updater but right-click on it and choose Run as Administrator? Those are at least the first things that come to mind...

[Linkjul]

Yes I can browse the internet fine.

I don't have an Antivirus, but I do have a firewall. I disabled it without success.

I also tried using run as administrator without success.

Can you post the contents of the updater's log file here? It might shed some light on what's happening. You can get to it by clicking the Log button in the updater or by finding it in the root of your FGU Data folder after the updater runs. The file is named FGUpdaterEngine.log.

I'm having trouble hosting a game as well on Parallels running on macOS Catalina. Here's the error log I'm getting when I try to host a cloud game:

Any help or guidance is appreciated.

jrowsey1,

We've discovered that the Lua DLL we use requires an MS runtime; but we haven't gotten a chance to include with the installer yet.

This post has the link to Microsoft which has the installer for the MS runtime DLLs needed.
